I have a pair of zebra finches. I noticed that the female zebra start laying eggs. It laid 3 eggs, but on the fourth day when I went to check to see if she laid another egg, I noticed that in the nest there were only 2 eggs. Is this normal?

Sometimes the parents eat the infertile eggs
Did you check around to make sure the birds did not push the egg out? They have been known to rid the nest of eggs that won't hatch.
Mother Nature is cruel, but I guess it is all about survival of the fittest.
Hope the rest of the eggs resulted in chicks!! Post photos!!
